Day 5 of Denver Broncos training camp was possibly the most intense and physical practice the team has had since reconvening early last week. It was the third straight day of padded practice, and the players were 'chirping' at each other as emotions ran hot.
In other words, there was some good-natured and often very loud smack talk being vollied back and forth between the Broncos defense and offense. The guy at the center of it on defense seems to have been defensive tackle Malcolm Roach, while on offense, running back J.K. Dobbins was quick to fire back at volume.
It's all in good fun, though, and in the spirit of brotherly competition. A collective sort of sibling rivalry, let's say.
Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. illustrated that with one comment post-practice at the podium when he was asked about all the chirping back and forth.
"It's just Malcolm Roach. I sit next to him in the locker room. The guy doesn't shut up," Mims said on Wednesday. "He's talking crap to receivers. It's like, 'Dude, you're a fat guy. Go worry about that. Leave me alone.' (smiles) No, we're always going back and forth, but with him, it's a whole other deal."
